I felt like I hit my stride at the end of last game, figuring out clues, looking at post history etc. Unfortunately I was active only after town had already lost haha. I'll do better this game I hope.

It's got to be fog or snow. Fog and snow decrease in usefulness as the game goes on, while the other 2 weathers increase in usefulness. The way I see it snow gives us information and the other abilities let us act on that information... acting obviously comes after knowing | ||

It seems we should change to snow because BC has cracked the Plexa-clues. On the other hand, it might be a good idea to get Sunny so that we could kill off suspicious people like Pyrr or L. Also, this whole Mr. Julia thing is really intriguing. I think we should re-focus our efforts on decoding that stuff. He seems to have a very androgynous quality to his name. Perhaps this applies to his person as well?? The only person who really stands out to me for this Mr. Julia is Scaramanga. His name ends with an "a" so it's feminine. He claims, I think, to be a dude. So he's both a chick and a guy. This works. Another great candidate for Mr. Julia is Caller, who name sounds like "Call HER" Thoughts? They're my top two suspects right now. I hate to keep shooting down people's analysis without providing anything good of my own but Caller hasn't had any clues written for him yet. | ||

Vote sunny tonight and tomorrow (if non-fog mafia KP is still 4). We need to get mafia KP down, and we've got enough clues so that our assassins should be able to make good judgments on who needs to get hit. Or does anyone think we should vote fog one more day before sunny, so that we get more clues to go off of? Let me know what you think... but with the priest and 2 other blues down, and a mayor who kind of looks like mafia, I think it's time to take a risk and try to get KP down. | ||

I was constantly refreshing my inbox waiting for your message. LucasWoJ: Nope. You weren't. If anything, you've convinced yourself you have. Simple psychology. I'm certain of at least two blues (I won't mention them for obvious reasons -- in case you're converted), but I cannot figure out Bockit. Opinions on him? I was mafia with him three games ago, and his posting behavior was eeringly similar. Foolishness: I do believe that acting like BC or L is not in your favor, but you are free to believe what you want. That also goes for conversion. Do you really think I'm going to get converted of all people? Nobody talks to me and with much "smarter" people such as yourself and soon to be MBH, am I really going to be wasted on? If his posting was eeringly similar, that must mean he didn't post at all. He's hardly said more than a sentence at a time. Not much to go off of, although there has been some talk about him. LucasWoJ: The lack of posting is strikingly similar as is WHAT he has actually said. Writing like BC or L is entirely to my advantage in PMs.(although it's really neither. It's not just me saying "This is how things work" and expecting the universe to line up that way). Foolishness: After looking through the thread again, I can't say I've noticed anything particular about Bockit. You obviously have the good information since you can compare him to past games, and I have no experience with that. As I said before, it might be worth mentioning in the thread. Or if you don't want to come about it you could try PMing L and BC about it? They'll be sure to listen and consider. As far as that goes, if you do initiate something I'll surely help by voting for Bockit, but that'd be all I could do After he sent me the first message, I responded truthfully since lying wouldn't have done any good at this point. Notice how after he finds out what I think he dodges all the information, as well as not saying any of his opinions (except about Bockit). I know that there is no conversion, but at this point I suspected him so I wanted to play along and make him think I'm just a stupid green townie. However he continues to ignore the most important points, and just wants my opinion on Bockit. In one of the past mafia games (you might have been in it I don't know), LucasWoJ was on mafia side, and his job for the team was to consistently PM people and try to figure out possible blues for the mafia to snipe. Knowing this information is why I acted stupid and cocky, so I wouldn't get killed. It seems to me that he's doing the exact same job this game. It fits in because he simply wants what I think about various matters while not saying anything back. A non mafia member would be more likely to share their opinion on matters, especially if they thought I was clean. He has yet to respond to the last thing I sent him, and it's been about 20 hours since then. And as a side note, don't take anything I say against you (whether in PM or thread) presonally, I'm just doing it to keep up appearances. You're survival and leadership is necessary for the town to win. To summarize: LucasWoJ is seemingly trying to find out whether I'm blue or not (the fact that he PMed me first also fits in here), and consistently ignored important points throughout our conversation. He's playing exactly like he did in a previous game where he was mafia. Regarding Bockit, it's hard to determine whether Bockit is mafia or not based on this. My guess would be that Bockit is innocent (assuming LucasWoJ is mafia). However they could both be mafia, and LucasWoJ wanted to see if I suspected a fellow member (because I might be worth killing if I did, or something). That's about it, sorry for the dreaded long PM. Lucaswoj + Show Spoiler + We haven't talked via PM in three days, and we only exchanged a few before then.

You and I both know the last thing we want is L to become town leader (prior and after to MBH being alive). If we double lynch, kill Truthbringer and ydg, we'll probably get one mafia and that should distract from any violence between you and L. Just my thought process, it's ultimately up to you of course. This is noteworthy because of him not wanting L to become town leader, In fact in the thread he had been opposition to L (he does mentioning he suspects truthbringer as well). and L had foolishness as a suspect as a potential mafia based on voting habits. He also asks me to stop trying to get pyrr killed + Show Spoiler + From: Foolishness [ Profile | Buddy ] Subject: Pyrry Date: 7/10/09 04:58 It is very apparent to me that Pyrry is innocent (whether blue or not I don't know). It's also clear that you are innocent to me as well. It's important that we form a coalition for the benefit of the town, especially since there is no current town plan with MBH dead. I have the necessary information to lead us to the mafia. If you read my most recent post in the thread (since I'm sure you ignored it) you will realize that there are strange things happening with the votes. The people I mentioned are not the only ones that are suspicious. I want to get ecomania lynched today as I think he is the best option for the town (I realize there is a double lynch so we've got other options as well). I want you to call off your accusations against Pyrry. I know you don't want to, but chances are the mafia are sitting back, hiding, and laughing right now. At the very least, by looking at the voting patterns, I'm sure you can agree that we have much better suspects to go after (even if Pyrry is mafia). Risking our lynch on Pyrry spells disaster if he is innocent. It's important that we collaborate on ideas to get another mafia lynched. And above all us, voting patterns show more than clue analysis right now. It's important we don't get carried away with clue analysis (both you and Pyrry are guilty of this). I hope you will at least consider the things I've said as you can easily turn this game around. And lastly Caller and So no fek were returning from their night class on nautical warfare, but knowing there were Mafia about they decided to take the back route to their home. While walking through the last and only park on their journey home they heard a strange but faint laughter. A twig behind them snapped. They panicked- Caller turned and ran as fast as he could, while So no fek was petrified and could not move. The Mafioso stepped forward and ensured that So no fek would no longer be able to move. As he was running, Caller heard the laughter again, but more clearer. He looked up into the trees and a curiously clothed man glided down from the tree, but stumbled on the landing and fell over. To Callers’s surprise he burst out laughing. Not willing to take a chance, Caller backed away but his leg got caught in a trap and was hoisted into the air helpless. The Mafioso stood up walked over to Caller and tied his hands up with a bomb. Standing just outside of the blastzone, the Mafioso and Caller stared into each other’s eyes as Caller’s death was literally counting down. The blast destroyed Caller. Alot of these characteristics come off making it seem the mafia looks foolish, then with the trap/bomb making caller look foolish. From all the stuff between foolishness and lucas, 1 of the 2 is red. But due to the PM discrepency of the original pm's of lucas and foolishness, Lucas appears more green atm than he did. So wait, the point of this is that you think Foolishness is mafia now? | ||

That alone convinces me that he's mafia. Unfortunately... it would be stupid, again, to vote for him tonight.

Take a look at the voting thread, and tell me that the double lynches are helping us out. Yeah that's right, they're not. They need direction to be effective and anyone that initiates a double lynch without the town having direction, or without the intent of giving that direction is either mafia or a townie that is as good as a mafia and should die. You've got to do a better job than this, Bockit. Double lynches are still helpful, regardless of whether town has "direction" or not. | ||

If I start getting votes tomorrow I'll write more in my defense but I think all people really have to do is read my posts last night to be convinced not to vote for me. You say my posts were wishy-washy but it's clear that I was absolutely convinced that BC was mafia the entire time. The only thing I was struggling with was whether it was worth it to lynch him before he had a chance to use the double lynches. | ||

I'm gonna respond to Foolishness's original post accusing me. - Suspicious voting behavior and posting during the BC/kuja lynch Again, if you look at my posts when I was discussing with Bockit about what to do, there's no inconsistency in my opinions. Like I said before, I think that anyone who actually goes back and reads what I wrote in response to Bockit's arguments (and not just the posts that Foolishness cherry-picked) will absolve me of any wrongdoing yesterday. - Suspicious voting behavior during the Truthbringer lynch If you look at voting patterns, there were a lot of people who were voting Truthbringer without posting in the thread and were just following blindly the person who posted the original clue analysis for him, disregarding BC's loooong post on ydg without responding or anything. What I did was an anti-bandwagoning measure. - Knowledge of the protect last night What a dumb argument. The suicide bomber blew up 2 people (it's in the clues), 2 people were hit, mafia KP was 3, and therefore we had a protect. It's not rocket science. - General suspicious and unhelpful posting I assume this is because I haven't done any clue analysis? I don't do clue analysis anymore because I obviously suck at it. Remember last game, foolishness? Remember when I said "Raxor has to be mafia based on these clues" over and over again? Well, Raxor wasn't mafia and that's why I don't do clue analysis anymore. Post analysis got me far more accurate info. Speaking of clue analysis, post some of me. Don't lynch someone without any clues pointing to them... BC tried to do that and it almost got ydg lynched. | ||

We spread our votes out fairly well between L and BC. Pyrr started getting in deep with BC, which gave us a good start in getting info on town. We were able to see who the Emperor suspected and were able to influence his thoughts on who to target, leading to multiple mistargets and, eventually, his death. From the beginning, I wanted to keep Chezinu and Pyrr totally incognito until the end of the game. I don't know if they shared this view or were even aware of it. It was my opinion that with the cover ability (covering Pyrr every night), we could keep those two completely hidden until the end of the game unless Plexa REALLY clueraped us. The MBH plan was good. You guys should have voted rain, all game. We were able to pick off high-value targets all game (aka the good townies) because you didn't vote rain at the beginning and stay at it. Night 1 was the infamous "GOSU" night, where our hits spelled a secret message. BC foolishly published the PM from Plexa telling him about the message, making him look even more suspicious. I thought the GOSU thing was an incredibly stupid idea until I realized that the list wasn't that bad. I wanted to switch out Fishball for Bockit but Chez convinced me that it wouldn't be a huge loss to keep Bockit alive. Obviously, he was right, as Bockit single-handedly led to us being able to win. We were crushed by the day 2 clues. We thought that if the clues were all like that, then town had the game won 100%. (Plexa would soon err on the side of incomprehensibility in his clue writing) My clue on this first night (a tall lanky man who knew exactly what was going on) led me to stop posting lest someone read my sig and immediately get the town to lynch me. There was ZERO clue analysis on YDG in Day 2 voting, and after L casted a LOT of doubt on BC and his accusations, everyone flocked to TruthBringer. Our two incognitos voted for Truthbringer in order to build confidence in the late game, and we griped and grumbled because losing TB seemed to be the only way out of the situation (if ydg had been lynched and flipped green it would have led to a votelist chock-full of mafia.) That day we saw the rise of L as the head townie and foreshadowing of Foolishness as the town MVP. We knew we had to get rid of L ASAP (both to cast suspicion on BC and to kill the center of town at that point), but I personally felt that Foolishness's abrasive posting style would keep people from taking him seriously for a while. At around this time, so no fek revealed himself to Pyrr and told him he was mystic and that he had checked him and gotten a green result. We debated whether to keep so no fek alive in order to gain MBH's trust after a possible revive, but eventually decided to kill him immediately. Night 2 was an enormous triumph for us. We used Scamp because we thought town would use rain non-stop after the revive and also because we thought Scamp was pretty fucked by clues. We decided to use the "two hits no medic save" option because I wasn't convinced by Pyrr's argument that L would be medic protected that night. We used the bomb hits on L (who was indeed medic protected) and Judge (whose priest clue was the most likely to draw a protect, if not the strongest. We felt that arrav's priest match was very strong as well.) We killed the center of town (L), hit a good vet player (Caller), discovered a medic by taking away 1 of his HP (redtooth), killed a DT (so no fek), and killing the priest (vx70GTOJudgexv). Absolutely amazing. Our clue analysis on the priest was spot on, with us almost, but not quite, missing the "unsure what his fate would be" quote ---> unfinished schedule in Judge's profile. Critically, we almost hit Bockit again due to the word "rage" in his profile, but didn't. Most of the kills were self-explanitory, but here's why we his redtooth: ummm for those of you not in IRC, the reason we chose redtooth was because no one really suspects him (pyrr's accusation didn't stick at all) and he gave really good analysis on why either pyrr or BC is probably mafia. I was impressed by his reasoning and I think killing him is prudent at this point. The next day, even before Bockit posted anything, I wrote this to open up the Day 3 lynch thread: I want to lynch BC today. For that we need clue analysis. For that we need YOU. Find clues in the day posts. They're there... we just need to look for them. BC is so vulnerable and it's not even our doing. If we pile onto him he'll be lynched for sure. Anyone disagree? Of course, this was hopelessly naive. Lynching BC had almost no advantage, if you thought about it. The only powers the emperor had were to do double lynches! The emperor literally could not hurt town, even if he was mafia, except by withholding double lynches. At least, that's what I thought town would think until Bockit made his brilliant arguments to lynch BC. I'm not even being sarcastic when I say the arguments were brilliant. I think that if some of us were in Bockit's place, we would have done the same thing. Pyrr said himself, "If I were town, I'd be lynching BC too, he looks so much like mafia." The "town gets an autowin if BC is godfather" argument really clinched it... I was able to vote for BC without making it look like a bandwagon (although it led to my death later on) and we were able to get a double townie lynch, and remove the threat of double lynches from the game. Chaoser made a couple of really dumb posts at this point, telling everyone that BC was innocent but not voting to save him. He would continue posting really badly until his death. Pyrr escaped suspicion the next day by effectively saying "oops lol." I knew I was boned since an assassin was definitely going to target me after my back and forth with Bockit. I knew chaoser was boned because of his dumb posts. I'm amazed, though, that no one found clues on either of us. The ninja references (I really likes the dagger eyes clue, Plexa. kniiife eeeye attaccck) and the xelnaga watchtower clues were clear as day. We hit redtooth to finish him off, hit JeeJee because he looked blue and because he wasn't fighting with Foolishness as much as we thought he would, hit ydg because he was posting well and because we didn't think he would ever get lynched, and hit inertinept because he looked blue. At this point Foolishness was solidifying himself as town MVP. His planned hitlist was all mafia. He even named Chezinu! He even named Falcynn as probably blue! Unfortunately he trusted Pyrr, but then again so did everyone else in the game (until they died.) We didn't hit him because we were sure he would draw a medic protect. The game was up in day 4, with both me and ecomania on the chopping block. I could have done better in my defense, but I think Scara would have hit me no matter what I said. We then got Faronel lynched, sort of inevitable he and Bockit would die given their role in BC's death. Pyrr then did some post analysis magic and names Storrzerg as the last angel. We put 2 hits on him, a fact which chaoser stupidly pointed out (sorry chaoser), and killed Lucas since he was actually building an OK town coalition. Everyone was voting chaoser so we tried to build a huge bandwagon that town would balk at. However mafia was not entirely active at this time so our plan didn't really work out. Also, we didn't have a convincing alternate candidate. We killed the confirmed townie and iNfuNdiBuLuM. It was a mistake to kill iNfuNdiBuLuM. We got BWDero lynched (my story is losing steam) Scara had told Pyrr that Falcynn was mystic (I think.) So we killed him and Malongo, setting up lenwe's lynch. | ||

Can you imagine if we had gotten the priest, a mystic, and both angels in 1 day? | ||
